    Soft Spot for Journeyman fighters because of his brother was treated, thought that was well knows by now. But yeah his Brother was Boxer and was basically treated like sh#t

    This sport does have a LONG history of use guys up and then throw them away when they lose a few times! I have no problem with Veteran Fighters like Angulo who want to continue to fight getting the opportunity to make money to take care of their families

    I do think veterans like that should probably be in 8 Round fights or something like that

      Glad he got a win in the fight. Hope he's not willing to fight too much longer though.

      Also, where are all the Quillin fans. I remember him being mentioned as a boogieman for Golovkin and others. As usual, same mugga fuggas are gonna act like they weren't on his jock once upon a time...

        Some in the boxing media played a big part in this. I remember there was an article posted here by Thomas Hauser who suggested Haymon be lynched like his biblical namesake. And the editor at the time, Steve Kim, didn't see a problem at all with it.

          Yep. Youre absolutely right. Everyone should at least TRY fighting under his cannery. They gave nothing to lose because if they don’t like it he lets them leave when they are ready.

                  You trying real hard to ACT dumb

                      Can you name those fighters? Should be easy since there isn't much at all....
